While most of us have accepted that Craig Gillespie’s Supergirl didn’t quite meet its potential and have since moved on to other things—like, say, relitigating how nuts it is that Marvel couldn’t make a Blade movie!—acclaimed comics scribe Grant Morrison is just now getting around to DC Studios’ June release. “I watched Supergirl, which wasn’t terrible but wasn’t especially great either,” they wrote on their Substack blog Xanaduum. And while faint praise directed at Supergirl from the writer of All-Star Superman and Animal Man certainly feels like news in itself, Morrison has also dropped a few choice words about Jason Momoa’s overblown cameo appearance in the film as Lobo, DC’s notorious Czarnian bounty hunter. First, Morrison teed up their complaints by saying something nice about Supergirl herself, Milly Alcock. “All the best and most moving scenes involved Millie Alcock, and I thought she did a credible job…. Jason Momoa, who I was actually looking forward to, was very disappointing as Lobo.”
